Characterization of compressible fluctuations in solar wind streams dominated by balanced and imbalanced turbulence: Parker Solar Probe, Solar Orbiter and Wind observations
C. A. Gonzalez, C. Gonzalez, A. Tenerani
Characterizing compressible fluctuations in the solar wind is essential for understanding their role in solar wind acceleration and heating, yet their origin and evolution across d…
Estimation of Effective Viscosity to Quantify Collisional Behavior in Collisionless Plasma
Subash Adhikari, Carlos Gonzalez, Yan Yang +4
While dissipation in collisional plasma is defined in terms of viscosity and resistivity, the exact functional form of dissipation i.e., the so-called dissipation function in nearl…
Local proton heating at magnetic discontinuities in Alfvenic and non-Alfvenic solar wind
C. A. Gonzalez, J. L. Verniero, R. Bandyopadhyay +1
We investigate the local proton energization at magnetic discontinuities/intermittent structures and the corresponding kinetic signatures in velocity phase space in Alfvénic and no…
Particle-in-cell simulations of Alfvén wave parametric decay in a low-beta plasma
C. A Gonzalez, Maria Elena Innocenti, Anna Tenerani
We study the parametric decay instability of parallel propagating Alfvén wave in a low-beta plasma using one-dimensional fully kinetic simulations. We focus for the first time on t…
Turbulent electromagnetic fields at sub-proton scales: two-fluid and full-kinetic plasma simulations
C. A. González, T. Parashar, D. Gomez +2
Plasma dynamics is a multi-scale problem that involves many spatial and temporal scales. Turbulence connects the disparate scales in this system through a cascade that is establish…
